Heiko Carstens 9ea2c4fd1a KVM: s390: fix guarded storage control register handling
commit 44bada28219031f9e8e86b84460606efa57b871e upstream.

store_regs_fmt2() has an ordering problem: first the guarded storage
facility is enabled on the local cpu, then preemption disabled, and
then the STGSC (store guarded storage controls) instruction is
executed.

If the process gets scheduled away between enabling the guarded
storage facility and before preemption is disabled, this might lead to
a special operation exception and therefore kernel crash as soon as
the process is scheduled back and the STGSC instruction is executed.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
